The check is from Pioneer Bank in Rapid City, South Dakota. I called Ms. Johnson and got an answering machine, and left a message for her to call me back. What I'm going to do is offer to sign the check over to Seeley Financial (Or to her directly,) to cover the "Administrative payment and clearance fees." I am excited to hear her reaction to this proposal. If this check is legit, this should be no problem, as I will be giving this money to them to cover these fee's. I hope that this helps, and encourage you to be creative when dealing with these people.......heck, have fun with them!
